About Me

Karla Smith Astrologer Headshot

I’m Karla Smith.
I look forward to working with you!


Who I am:

I love learning and teaching, as well as helping others find their purpose in life. I live with my family in Northern California.

My approach to astrology:

The first reading I had over twenty years ago changed me forever. I had always been interested in personal growth and consciousness, but astrology spoke to my heart immediately.  I began to study it with the same woman who gave me my first reading. I was fascinated that astrology answered many of the whys I had to the questions I had about my life. When you have a reading, it is like turning the lights on in a dark room in which you’ve been stumbling around.

The method of astrology I use is Evolutionary Astrology. Steven Forrest, one of the founders of Evolutionary Astrology, has been the biggest influence on my style of reading a chart, and I am a member of the Forrest Center of Evolutionary Astrology. Evolutionary Astrology operates under the belief that we incarnate into this life for experiences that will assist us in our soul’s growth. Astrology is a language that communicates to us those encounters and events that we are supposed to experience. Unlike traditional astrology, which can be fixed and fatalistic, Evolutionary Astrology is fluid and inspiring. It shows you choices in how to work with supporting and challenging energies so you can stay on course for your soul-growth.
